    What happened? Description:
    I had a trade posted on csgolounge, for an m4a1-a cyrex factory new stat trak, value of around £240 I had the trade open to offers, he added me on steam, and said he was very interested in purchasing the gun via paypal and was prepared to go first I told him I was aware of all the paypal scams and he convinced me wasn't a scammer, he then proceeded to tell me he would depsoist the money as a gift to friends and family, but for some reason his paypal was only allowing him to do payments of increments of $150 so said he would pay two lots of $150 and after I had received the second one, I would trade him the gun, he sent the first payment, which came through differently to which alarm bells should of started ringing, but for somr reason probably my naivety I accepted it, he then said he paypal was being silly and wouldn't allow him to transfer anymore money and asked if their was anything else in my inventory I would be willing to let him have for the value of what he had paid, because I felt obliged to as he had parted with money we agreed on three gun skins that made up the value, an awp asiimiov well worn, an ak-47 Vulcan minimal wear and a m4a4 X-ray, he seemed happy so I made the trade, a few minutes after him receiving the weapons from me, he proceeded to raise a paypal dispute saying he hadn't received the skins and because paypal don't cover you for virtual items its left me in a rather venerable position, please warn people about thislow life scam artist so other unsuspecting people don't get had by him or her, no idea who they are. fortunately I saved most of the trade conversation we had in steam and have sent that to paypal as evidence to support my dispute case, I also have screen shots of the message I left on his profile seconds after tha trade was completed, he also left a damming comment on my profile that would of had him bang to rights, but the clever so and so had the presence of mind to remove that before I could get a screen grab, but I will upload to yourselves all the evidence I have regarding this diabolical scam, in the hope you can highlight this scum for the nasty piece of work they are.

    Many Regards.
